U's Go To Needham

12 July 2016

Second friendly for McGreal's men.

Colchester United travel to Needham Market on Tuesday night as their preparations for the new season continue apace.

The team head to Needham after an assured 3-0 win against Maldon & Tiptree on Saturday and are boosted by the return of Frankie Kent and Sam Walker to the squad.

Frankie missed the weekend win with a minor knee problem, whilst Sam's return to action is being carefully paced by the U's coaching team.


The match comes too soon for Tom Eastman and Jamie Harney, but both are expected to be in training by the start of next week.
Needham's stadium can be found on Quinton Road in Needham Market, with the stadium postcode IP6 8DA.

Admission prices for the match are as follows:-

£5 Adults:

U's: Barnes, Bransgrove, Walker, Brindley, Vincent-Young, Wynter, Elokobi, Prosser, Kent, Briggs, O'Donoghue, Garvan, Lapslie, Loft, Slater, Guthrie, Szmodics, Dickenson, Wright, Sembie-Ferris, Johnstone, Porter, Bonne

Our hosts will also be holding a bucket collection and donating a proportion of gate receipts towards the rehabilitation of local footballers Shaun Whiter and Joey Abbs, who were seriously injured in a road accident recently.
